Answer: The lobster's blue coloration is a result of a genetic defect that causes the lobster to produce more of a certain protein than normal.

Answer:

Explanation:

You may think of a lobster as red, but about 1 in every 2 million lobsters is blue! This blue color is the result of a mutation in the lobster’s genes. The mutation causes the lobster to make an extra amount of a protein called astaxanthin. This protein is usually important for the red color that you see when the lobster is cooked, but in excess amount, makes the lobster blue.

How many moles are in a 12.0 g sample of NiC12
Nady [450]

Answer:

0.17 moles

Explanation:

In the elements of the periodic table, the atomic mass = molar mass. <u>Ex:</u> Atomic mass of Carbon is 12.01 amu which means molar mass of Carbon is also 12.01g/mol.

In order to find the # of moles in a 12 g sample of NiC-12, we will need to multiply the number of each atom by its molar mass and then add the masses of both Nickel and C-12 found in the periodic table:

  • Molar Mass of Ni (Nickel): 58.69 g/mol
  • Molar Mass of C (Carbon): 12.01 g/mol

Since there's just one atom of both Carbon and Nickel, we just add up the masses to find the molar mass of the whole compound of NiC-12.

  • 58.69 g/mol of Nickel + 12.01 g/mol of Carbon = 70.7 g/mol of NiC-12

There's 12g of NiC-12, which is less than the molar mass of NiC-12, so the number of moles should be less than 1. In order to find the # of moles in NiC-12, we need to do some dimensional analysis:

  • 12g NiC-12 (1 mol of NiC-12/70.7g NiC-12) = 0.17 mol of NiC-12
  • The grams cancel, leaving us with moles of NiC-12, so the answer is 0.17 moles of NiC-12 in a 12 g sample.

<em>P.S. C-12 or C12 just means that the Carbon atom has an atomic mass of 12amu and a molar mass of 12g/mol, or just regular carbon.</em>
